Hemp Protein vs Other Protein Powders Benefits and Uses
How does hemp protein vs other protein powders look like? Let’s compare a basic hemp protein powder to other forms of protein.
In general, hemp is great for protein as it contains all 9 essential amino acids, for building healthy skin and hair, lean muscle and strong bones.
Much of the soy that is grown is GMO and grown with herbicides and pesticides.
Whey is often cut with other ingredients or isolated, leaving much of the essential co-factors and micro-nutrients left out.
Take a look at this chart to get a good idea hemp compares to Soy and Whey, as it relates to digestion, fat content, potential allergens and processing methods.
